    Happy Groundhog Day

    Punxsutawney Phil has just declared 6 more weeks of winter.

    Where's global warming when we need it???

    This day should really be a national holiday!

    Liberalism is a cult divorced from reality.

    I don't put a lot of faith in animal predictions anymore.

    Here, everybody goes all ga-ga over wooly bear caterpillars and their ability to see if a early winter is coming.
    From looking at the streets---- I've noticed they can't even tell if a car is coming, much less winter.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    IF…………..you can sneeeeeeeek across the border!

    Is it open yet?

    I have cousins from Edmonton that come down every winter to escape the worst of the winter. Couldn't do it for the past 2 years do to China virus.

    I love Canada in the spring, summer, and fall. You can keep winter…….had enough of that in Iowa and Michigan.

    Well he saw his shadow here but froze his backside off too. But it is a calm day for once so the temp does not matter much. Has been a windy winter so far which fouls up going shooting. -13 deg. but i will go out and try some loads today.
